HISTORY FROM "GOLD" BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Salt, which together with olive oil claims the title of "gold" of the earth, historically has the roots of its birth, almost synchronized with the birth of the human species. "YOU are the salt of the earth," Jesus told his disciples. (Matthew 5:13). On a Chinese papyrus, in 2700 BC. we find the first recipe for salt while in historical reports we learn that the Egyptians used it as a basic ingredient for embalming the dead. The Romans, in their barter society, used it as wages for legionnaires, using the word sal which they coined from an anagram of the word alas (<salt, salt). Thus, the English word "salary" (salary) and the word ("sales") emerged.

Extractt from the movie ( ''A touch of spice'', Turkish: Bir tutam baharat), produced in 2003, directed and written by Tassos Boulmetis.
